New Free-to-Play, FPS-Centric, MMO Hits Closed Beta

Nexon America, publisher of MapleStory, has announced the closed beta for a new free-to-play, FPS-centric, MMO. The new "Combat Arms" is planned for a full release later this summer and promises not only the ability to customize your soldier, but also your guns and equipment. "The closed beta test will run exclusively at FilePlanet.com for one week beginning May 30th. Once the game is released to the public, Combat Arms will receive regular content updates, including new weapons, gear, maps, and more free game modes."

Not only am I suspicious that this isn't an MMO, I'm also worried about whether it's truly free. I think Nexon makes the types of games where you have to pay for the good items. So while this game may be technically free to play, don't be surprised if you only get a handgun and have to pay real cash to get your AK-47.

yawn maybe?

MMORPG's can go piss up a rope. Big multiplayer games that don't require a zillion hours to keep up with, now that I can get behind. I'm very impressed with the GTAIV multiplayer experience on xbox live. You can play it for ten hours or ten minutes and have a blast the whole time. I was surprised at how unlaggy my experience has been because I've heard some real horror stories about how microsoft oversold the service.
